I shed tears over them because so many of them are preventable if Flu vaccinations were mandatory (which would pay for itself in reduced loss of productivity and reduced cost of healthcare).
Even the influenza vaccination is not perfect. And some will die, but I shed tears over any unnecessary death that could have been prevented.

Per the CDC:
2016-2017 flu deaths 61,000
2017-2018 flu deaths 95,000
2018-2019 flu deaths 53,000
My point was not directed at you but at the false narrative that only Covid deaths matter.
